While most taxpayers will be ab le to prepare their returns them-selves, a Deputy Collector of In-ternal Revenue will be at the Hotel Southern, Deka, on Jan. 8 and 9, from 8 a. m. to 5 p. m. to give any assistance needed. No charge will be made for this ser-vice. ' 40 YEARS AGO ... Fromlhe Files .... Burtner The big concrete headgate at the head of our canal is complet-ed and is as fine a piece of con-crete work as there , is around here anywhere. It has eight gates with a water front standing against them at present. If all our irrigation system was as solid as this headgate we would never have to worry about any water anymore. The headgate is built in the first big cut that takes off immediately from the reser-voir.- This cut is about 20 feet deep, and is in good solid red clay, and it is next to an impossibility for it to wash out. The Dlans and ents every community is going to enjoy itself during this festal week and family reunions, public pro-grams and social dances will be the order everywhere. While coun-try communities may lack some of the advantages of the cities, we believe the people enjoy them-selves quite as much, if not more, than the city cousins. We will bet a country community in any of the settlements of Millard county will enjoy a home dramatic or a Christmas night dance more than the average city audience will enjoy a $2.50 modern drama or a 'fashionable dance with $500 gowns, a $200 orchestra and champagne on the side. Country communities depend upon them-selves for their enjoyments and it develops their social and organiz-ing faculties as is not done in citv About 80,000 pounds of lucern gy the last week, while it is not ' freezing and one appreciates plen-ty of wraps and a good fire. The sun has not shown his face for 'four days. The local dramatic company is preparing to play "Hazel Kirke", with the assistance of Wm. N. Gardner and Miss Eunice Iverson, of Deseret, both of whom speak for themselves, and past successes of the company, this promises to be an excellent presentation of the famous play. Come out Thurs-day night, Dec. 22, and judge for yourselves. Without hesitation you will say "It's the best ever' Leamington About 80,000 ponds of lucern seed was sold here on Monday at the right parties, as wheat could be grown here in any quantity de-sired, and it is usually a fine qual-ity. There are 'few who realize the opportunities and resources of the western part of our county. communities. May our friends all have the time of their lives and give and receive a thousand Christ-mas gifts and mementos. Oak City The telephone line between here and Silver City is completed. The wire was strung last week. A-lthough one mile of poles was lac-king, we are able to talk just the same. It is reported that this mile belongs to a inewly married man, and as he is unable to leave his wife long enough to place ithem up we will have to excuse him for the present. Supt. Jos. Finlinson visited school last week on official business. Hinckley about 14 cents per pouna. inai means about $11,200 to the town, besides thousands of tons of hay and considerable grain and potat-oes and other crops. Pretty good for a town of 360 inhabitants. Bishop R. B. Ashby gave Mr. Fred Nielson and wife a little red pig for a wedding present. Snake Valley Stanley Clay recently returned from Black Rock with supplies for his fathers sheep camp. Grant Smith has gone to Ely, Nev., with tutkeys and chickens for the Christmas market. Nearly all of the teams now from Newhouse are loaded with flour. A flour mill at Garrison would be a very paying investment for specifications called for all walls and bulkheads to be eight inches in thickness on top. These walls and bulkheads were made twelve inches thick on top and are nearly a foot wider at the bottom than the specifications called for. This surely should stand all the pres-sure that can come against it. The dance given by the Relief Society last Friday night was a great success. Everything moved o'ff in good shape and everybody had a good- - time and a good sup-per. There was about $26 cleared, and this will help out quite a bit. The quilt that they tried to auction off was not sold on account of only $3.00 being bid. The only reason we can see for not getting higher bids is that we have had no cold weather yet and the peo-ple think they don't need a quilt. MERRY CHRISTMAS By Norman B.
